Prayers from me, too. Your cousins may not be baptized, but your cousins are also His, made by Him and loved by Him. His will be done for them, I'm hoping on His mercy. Remember not, o Lord, the sins of our youth. God be with them, and have mercy upon them, and upon all of us.

After all this time, things are starting to look up for him. He is in and out of the coma, and is expected to keep improving. Thank you for all of your prayers, I don't think he would have made it without them.

"There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there always has been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that “my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge."" Isaac Asimov
